I have multiple Bodum presses from plastic to glass to double walled plastic mugs (my actual favorite) and have never had issues with them. I like my travel mug because it's great to take with me on trips. Use a portable grinder, get almost boiling water and away I go.

I'm really looking forward to the medium sized Espro press. There are so many times i want to share a cup with someone at work, but I rarely want to make the effort to run a second press on my single for them to enjoy!

I was excited about the Espo-Press, but $80 for an 8oz on Amazon.com is a little rich for me right now. Nonetheless, I do have plans to purchase a SS one and will keep this in the back of my mind. My glass bodum french press does the trick meanwhile.

I agree the cost is high. Have you looked at CCS? I got mine from them...maybe 5 mos ago...for $69. Maybe the price has gone up? Or maybe you just haven't found the right retailer. Of course, $70 is a little much too, but for me it's worth it. The quality of the coffee from the Espro is noticeably better than my Bodum.
